Web 2.0 (Web two-point-zero) is currently the most
talked about development of the web. In fact, the
functionality of Web 2.0 has been around for several years
and Web 2.0 software usage has been implemented in business
websites for just as long.

What is Web 2.0 ?, Is it a new technology ?, The latest
version of the Internet ? - Web 2.0 is neither, rather
it's a concept, an approach to developing web solutions that
lays emphasis on active participation and interaction among
people. The idea is to allow people to become active
contributors to websites.

Web 2.0 offers the web as a platform of services wherein
applications and people can easily interact to collaborate
and share information.

Web 2.0 is the perceived second generation of web-based
communities and hosted services. But Web 2.0 is not just
about technology, but also about the way that software has
developed and how 'end users' (or customers) use the web.

Web 2.0 is simply the natural evolution of the original
world wide web, allowing users to actually do more, which is
what you would expect from effective technology. It is the
natural development of the next-generation internet.

Web 2.0 is an enhancement over 'read-only' sites
(i.e. websites where customers can get information but can
do little else). Web 2.0 allows customers to interact with
your website, such as :

Provide information about themselves;
Contribute to a blog or forum to keep them interested in
your company's products and issues;
Create their own blog or diary, updating and storing it
online;
Share their views about your company's products;
Upload information about products they require;
Upload their own photos, videos and documents;
Store their own items securely, PIN-protected;
Share secure information with nominated guests if desired;
Purchase items online;
Social Networking;
Business Networking.

A. S. Web Technology has gained momentum with the
adoption of Web 2.0 Technologies and is applying it for all
our business activities.
